I am blessed to sit on a number of non-profit boards but no charity work is as rewarding as those which help children. Whether it is an organization like RAJE (Russian-American Jewish Experience) which teaches kids about Judaism, or Kars for Kids whose radio ads air constantly, there are hundreds of thousands of charities which help kids.

In Judaism, kids have such a special role and as I look back at my childhood, from my time at the synagogue and in various youth movements, I recognize that there were organizations which played an important role in my development. Today, as an adult it's my obligation to give back, and indeed the world would be a better place if everyone did as well.

In my office and home I have posted a collection of great, inspirational quotations about helping children. As a father, kids' and their causes remain very close to my heart, so here are some of my favorite quotes on charity for kids, which can give inspiration to any soul:

"We're helping those children who cannot help themselves and giving a push to those who can. We've done it by working together for a common purpose. I see no reason to stop now." Jane D. Hull

"In the facades we put on for others we demonstrate our potential; through our children we reveal our reality." Lawrence Kelemen

"Do not be wise in words - be wise in deeds." Jewish Proverb

"Charity work is very important to me and gives me an opportunity to give back to my community. I've always been a big supporter of many different charities, have donated millions of dollars to them, and it just feels great to do and be able to help others, especially children." Richard MacDonald
